Bunch of busy bodies with their faux outrage. Don't remember anybody piping up over Russia hosting in 2009 or even Belarus for Junior earlier in the year.

I read an interesting article this morning... One in twenty people in the UK, that's about three million people, do not believe the Holocaust happened. And 8% think it did happen, but it has been over-exaggerated. Couple this with the fact that Jews are the most abused minority in the UK per head of capita. Any of these cultural icons got anything to say about that, I wonder...? I predict their answer, along with a lot of other people, would be... yeah, but... Israel.
